Has anyone had experience of this? I have about 6 (from B&Q) that are in need of cleaning, but cannot find any instructions so would be grateful for any suggestions please.

Thank you
Hilary

I thought that I would steal this thread to pass on a carpet cleaning tip.
I have an elderly incontinent cat who leaks thick black poo everywhere he sleeps. I found out, in desperation,that a dab of CO-OP hand soap ,in the pump action dispenser on a damp cloth,gets rid of stains on my cream coloured carpets wonderfully. It even works on the bright yellow sick stains that he so thoughtfully leaves around the house.

i have Heuga bathroom carpet tiles cos hubby is a bit dicky on his feet and does tend to have falls, i take each tile up and wash it in the sink in hand wash liquid soap water and the rinse under the running tap and let drain. in the summer i do take em outside to dry off in the sun. . I regularly wash tiles fitted around the loo and bidet for obvious reasons!! lol
